The merchant frowned as he looked towards the voice in the back. As expected, Yoo Jonghyuk was standing there. My expression changed as I warned him, “Hey, don't go around talking like that.”
The destruction of the First Murim that Yoo Jonghyuk mentioned was a scenario that hadn't happened yet. In the original novel, the tragedy would occur in a few more years. Of course, Yoo Jonghyuk witnessed this in the last regression and the future became the 'past' for him.
“Don't waste unnecessary time. You know that people can't become stronger with that trash.”
“I was just letting the group take a look.”
“We aren't here to be tourists. Have you forgotten?”
As he spoke, I managed to see something in Yoo Jonghyuk's hand. It was a paper wrapped with a hot and sweet smell coming from it.
…Dumpling? Yoo Jonghyuk ate the dumpling with an unapologetic face and continued talking, “There are three hidden pieces that can be found in the First Murim at this time. The Annihilation Emperor's martial arts book, the Black Demon Spirit's Black Demon Sword and the Blood Demon School's Demon Spirit Bead.”
The merchant cut in after Yoo Jonghyuk's words.
“Hahaha! The Annihilation Emperor's martial arts book and the Black Demon Spirit's Black Demon Sword? The Blood Demon School's Demon Spirit Bead? There is still someone searching for such things…!”
“Wake up! They are literally legends! They completely disappeared during the old days of Murim!”
Yoo Jonghyuk didn't bat an eyelid despite the merchant's laughter. It was because Yoo Jonghyuk knew they really existed. He even knew how to obtain a few of them. He shamelessly mentioned it in front of other people because he knew they wouldn't believe him anyway.
I replied to his words, “The Blood Demon School's Demon Spirit Bead has a low utility even if obtained. You might be able to absorb it but if I or the other party members eat it incorrectly, qigong deviation is likely to occur.”
Yoo Jonghyuk made the expression that I wanted. On the other hand, the merchant's expression was embarrassed as he heard us calmly discussing legends. I continued talking, “The Annihilation Emperor's martial arts book is very difficult to obtain. You can get it but you can't stay there for long.”
“I see.”
“Finally, the Black Demon Spirit's Black Demon Sword… maybe you are trying to obtain it because your sword is broken but have you forgotten that there is a weapon that is easier to obtain with a similar performance?”
Yoo Jonghyuk's complexion changed at my words. He noticed what I was trying to say. “…Do you really intend to go there?”
“Yes. This time, the power of the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint is essential.”
“I'm not going.”
“Do what you want. However, can you guide me to the school?”
Yoo Jonghyuk made a grim expression and the merchant interjected again. “Are you going to find the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint?”
“That's right.”
“Hah…” The merchant watched us with a slightly weary expression. Then he shook his head and withdrew his products. “That's it. Give that to me. I won't sell them to you.”
Han Myungoh, who was listening earnestly to the Ice Flower Goddess, was embarrassed as the earphones were suddenly pulled out. The merchant smiled at Han Myungoh. “I'm surprised that there are still friends who want to stick to the old ways. It isn't too bad to feel the change of the times in person. Good luck with your hard work.”
The merchant spoke unknown words and dragged his stall to another place to solicit customers. I stared at the merchant's back for a moment. Han Myungoh asked, “…What the hell does that mean?”
「 The second is Supreme King Yoo Jonghyuk. 」
Now it would be different.
